For those of you who dislike the Quick Shine product, have you found something better after you finally got it removed?

The only thing I've found is regular cleaning with Bona Floor Cleaner, and a new coat of clear varnish. Sorry :(

I have been using this product on my wood floors for years and I have no complaints. Jim C

No, I don't use the spot removal serum any more and my dark brown spot did not come back. I have continued using the other Specific Beauty products though.

Scott, I still really like this product. It has been 6 months now and I use speed shine every time I take my new car for a drive. First I use the California car duster to get the dust off and any bugs not glued on. Then spot clean with Griot's speed shine. It quickly removes the bugs, finger prints, and any tire overspray. On average I am done in under 3 minutes. I finish with the windows. If the shine is not super brilliant I use a little Zymol glaze to punch it up, usually once a month, after cleaning with griot's. Now I started with a good hand wash and waxed it with zymol wax to get a good base coat. It has been 45oo miles and 6 months later and I have not water washed my car or re-waxed and it looks show room clean. I keep the car in a garage. Just finishing spring and lots of bugs especially bees and it is still my favorite spot cleaner. I do use Griot's green spray cleaner when the bugs are especially thick (can't tell what color the car is under them) Seems to be a little better at dissolving mass bugs. But I use the less expensive Speed Shine almost everyday for quick touch ups. I only spot clean, sometimes use it on the wheels, and clean the front around the grill to keep my new car brilliant. I usually run the California duster over the car just before driving and it brings out the luster and gets rid of any dust. You can definitely see a difference. I am still getting lots of comments about how great the car looks (shiny and clean). I have not notice any scratches from cleaning the car this way. I use a soft hand and the rags that Griot's sells with the product. They are an improvement over cleaning clothes I have used in the past. Hope that helps.

No, I had no problem with rubbing off. Apply as per instructions either using the "shaker" method; use a makeup brush to achive the coverage desired. I use my fingers to fluff any excess away. It is easy and quick. Apply when you have time to play with it the first time. I love the results!

Was not impressed with Ultimate! Seemed almost greasy and loaded up my buffer pad! If this is clear coat paint (newer car), I used Meguiar's Ultra-Cut any kind of polishing compound and then wax. However scratches were too deep and they come back. Don't like clear coat!

This is truly a matte formula. Personally, I hated it - it left almost a white/milky residue on my face and it looked horrible. I opted for the non-matte formula. I have combination skin and live in Colorado, so it's pretty dry here - that might be the reason it didn't work for me.

I have never tried. I use Meguiar's (Natural Shine Protectant) for that. It works very well for me and doesn't leave a greasy, sticky residue.

I never got any results as I quit using the product pretty quickly. It burned and irritated my eyes so much that I ended up throwing it away.I went back to using Latisse which is by prescription but it works amazingly well.

No, it does not. I use Philosophy Dark Spot Remover - it does work (for me anyway)!

Takes about 3 timer cycles so about 3 minutes. I am still testing the UV light time on what works best. It's not easy to know because the Gel polishes leave a tacky feel to the touch and makes it feel like it's not cured yet. When completely done, you would use alcohal to remove the tackiness.

I found that the matte texture did diminish my natural shine. I discontinued using it because my hair looked and felt dry as a result.

I'm disappointed with the remover from 3m, I had better results with Goof off

Id try something else like Semi-Chrome or Noxon. This is more of a Polish than a rust remover / Chrome Cleaner. Although it may do the trick, you can try it but Id say to buy a can, only if you have other uses for it... this stuff lasts a good bit and works great for shining stuff up.

No, it stuck to my eyes, & I had a hard time getting the residue off. Was not impressed with the product!

I think it was a waste of money. My derm said that there really is nothing that will remove dark spots and alot of this is "hype". Will not purchase again.

The Scotch Naturals polish remover is best. Have patience with it as it does take a little longer to remove. From my experience it comes off more easily after a shower, bath, or washing the dishes. Hope that's helpful!
